  [22] καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ἄνδρας εἰς Αἴγυπτον,

  [22] And the king sent men into Egypt;

  [23] καὶ ἐξηγάγοσαν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖθεν καὶ εἰσηγάγοσαν αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν ἐν μαχαίρᾳ καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ μνῆμα υἱῶν λαοῦ αὐτοῦ.

  [23] and they brought him thence, and brought him into the king; and he smote him with the sword, and cast him into the sepulchre of the children of his people.

  [24] πλὴν χεὶρ Αχικαμ υἱοῦ Σαφαν ἦν μετὰ Ιερεμιου τοῦ μὴ παραδοῦναι αὐτὸν εἰς χεῖρας τοῦ λαοῦ τοῦ μὴ ἀνελεῖν αὐτόν.

  [24] Nevertheless the hand of Achicam son of Saphan was with Jeremiah, to prevent his being delivered into the hands of the people, or being killed.

  CHAPTER 34

  [2] Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Ποίησον δεσμοὺς καὶ κλοιοὺς καὶ περίθου περὶ τὸν τράχηλόν σου·

  [1] Thus said the Lord; Make to thyself bonds and yokes, and put them about thy neck,

  [3] καὶ ἀποστελεῖς αὐτοὺς πρὸς βασιλέα Ιδουμαίας καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα Μωαβ καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα υἱῶν Αμμων καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα Τύρου καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα Σιδῶνος ἐν χερσὶν ἀγγέλων αὐτῶν τῶν ἐρχομένων εἰς ἀπάντησιν αὐτῶν εἰς Ιερουσαλημ πρὸς Σεδεκιαν βασιλέα Ιουδα.

  [3] and thou shalt send them to the king of Idumea, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hands of their messengers that come to meet them at Jerusalem to Sedekias king of Juda.

  [4] καὶ συντάξεις αὐτοῖς πρὸς τοὺς κυρίους αὐτῶν εἰπεῖν Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ Οὕτως ἐρεῖτε πρὸς τοὺς κυρίους ὑμῶν

  [4] And thou shalt commission them to say to their lords, Thus said the Lord God of Israel; Thus shall ye say to your lords;

  [5] ὅτι ἐγὼ ἐποίησα τὴν γῆν ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι μου τῇ μεγάλῃ καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐπιχείρῳ μου τῷ ὑψηλῷ καὶ δώσω αὐτὴν ᾧ ἐὰν δόξῃ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς μου.

  [5] I have made the earth by my great power, and with my high arm, and I will give it to whomsoever it shall seem good in mine eyes.

  [6] ἔδωκα τὴν γῆν τῷ Ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλεῖ Βαβυλῶνος δουλεύειν αὐτῷ, καὶ τὰ θηρία τοῦ ἀγροῦ ἐργάζεσθαι αὐτῷ.

  [6] I gave the earth to Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon to serve him, and the wild beasts of the field to labour for him.

  [8] καὶ τὸ ἔθνος καὶ ἡ βασιλεία, ὅσοι ἐὰν μὴ ἐμβάλωσιν τὸν τράχηλον αὐτῶν ὑπὸ τὸν ζυγὸν βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος, ἐν μαχαίρᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ ἐπισκέψομαι αὐτούς, εἶπεν κύριος, ἕως ἐκλίπωσιν ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.

  [7] 8 And the nation and kingdom, all that shall not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, with sword and famine will I visit them, saith the Lord, until they are consumed by his hand.

  [9] καὶ ὑμεῖς μὴ ἀκούετε τῶν ψευδοπροφητῶν ὑμῶν καὶ τῶν μαντευομένων ὑμῖν καὶ τῶν ἐνυπνιαζομένων ὑμῖν καὶ τῶν οἰωνισμάτων ὑμῶν καὶ τῶν φαρμακῶν ὑμῶν τῶν λεγόντων Οὐ μὴ ἐργάσησθε τῷ βασιλεῖ Βαβυλῶνος·

  [9] And hearken ye not to your false prophets, nor to them that divine to you, nor to them that foretell events by dreams to you, nor to your auguries, nor your sorcerers, that say, Ye shall by no means work for the king of Babylon:

  [10] ὅτι ψευδῆ αὐτοὶ προφητεύουσιν ὑμῖν πρὸς τὸ μακρῦναι ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ὑμῶν.

  [10] for they prophesy lies to you, to remove you far from your land.

  [11] καὶ τὸ ἔθνος, ὃ ἐὰν εἰσαγάγῃ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ ὑπὸ τὸν ζυγὸν βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ ἐργάσηται αὐτῷ, καὶ καταλείψω αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐργᾶται αὐτῷ καὶ ἐνοικήσει ἐν αὐτῇ. –

  [11] But the nation which shall put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, I will even leave it upon its land, and it shall serve him, and dwell in it.

  [12] καὶ πρὸς Σεδεκιαν βασιλέα Ιουδα ἐλάλησα κατὰ πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους λέγων Εἰσαγάγετε τὸν τράχηλον ὑμῶν

  [12] I spoke also to Sedekias king of Juda according to all these words, saying, Put your neck into the yoke, and serve the king of Babylon.

  [14] καὶ ἐργάσασθε τῷ βασιλεῖ Βαβυλῶνος, ὅτι ἄδικα αὐτοὶ προφητεύουσιν ὑμῖν·

  [13] 14 For they prophesy unrighteous words to you,

  [15] ὅτι οὐκ ἀπέστειλα αὐτούς, φησὶν κύριος, καὶ προφητεύουσιν τῷ ὀνόματί μου ἐπ’ ἀδίκῳ πρὸς τὸ ἀπολέσαι ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἀπολεῖσθε ὑμεῖς καὶ οἱ προφῆται ὑμῶν οἱ προφητεύοντες ὑμῖν ἐπ’ ἀδίκῳ ψευδῆ.

  [15] for I sent them not, saith the Lord; and they prophesy in my name unjustly, that I might destroy you, and ye should perish, and your prophets, who unrighteously prophesy lies to you.

  [16] ὑμῖν καὶ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ καὶ τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν ἐλάλησα λέγων Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Μὴ ἀκούετε τῶν λόγων τῶν προφητῶν τῶν προφητευόντων ὑμῖν λεγόντων Ἰδοὺ σκεύη οἴκου κυρίου ἐπιστρέψει ἐκ Βαβυλῶνος· ὅτι ἄδικα αὐτοὶ προφητεύουσιν ὑμῖν, οὐκ ἀπέστειλα αὐτούς.

  [16] I spoke to you, and to all this people, and to the priests, saying, Thus said the Lord; Hearken not to the words of the prophets that prophesy to you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the Lord’s house shall return from Babylon: for they prophesy to you unrighteous words. I sent them not.

  [18] εἰ προφῆταί εἰσιν καὶ εἰ ἔστιν λόγος κυρίου ἐν αὐτοῖς, ἀπαντησάτωσάν μοι·

  [18] If they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is in them, let them meet me, for thus has the Lord said.

  [19] ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Καὶ τῶν ἐπιλοίπων σκευῶν,

  [19] And as for the remaining vessels,

  [20] ὧν οὐκ ἔλαβεν βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος, ὅτε ἀπῴκισεν τὸν Ιεχονιαν ἐξ Ιερουσαλημ,

  [20] which the king of Babylon took not, when he carried Jechonias prisoner out of Jerusalem,

  [22] εἰς Βαβυλῶνα εἰσελεύσεται, λέγει κύριος.

  [21] they shall go into Babylon, saith the Lord.

  CHAPTER 35

  [1] Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ τετάρτῳ ἔτει Σεδεκια βασιλέως Ιουδα ἐν μηνὶ τῷ πέμπτῳ εἶπέν μοι Ανανιας υἱὸς Αζωρ ὁ ψευδοπροφήτης ὁ ἀπὸ Γαβαων ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς τῶν ἱερέων καὶ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ λέγων
/>
  [1] And it came to pass in the fourth year of Sedekias king of Juda, in the fifth month, that Ananias the false prophet, the son of Azor, from Gabaon, spoke to me in the house of the Lord, in the sight of the priests and all the people, saying,

  [2] Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Συνέτριψα τὸν ζυγὸν τοῦ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος·

  [2] Thus saith the Lord; I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

  [3] ἔτι δύο ἔτη ἡμερῶν ἐγὼ ἀποστρέψω εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον τὰ σκεύη οἴκου κυρίου

  [3] Yet two full years, and I will return into this place the vessels of the house of the Lord,

  [4] καὶ Ιεχονιαν καὶ τὴν ἀποικίαν Ιουδα, ὅτι συντρίψω τὸν ζυγὸν βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος.

  [4] and Jechonias, and the captivity of Juda: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

  [5] καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας πρὸς Ανανιαν κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς τῶν ἱερέων τῶν ἑστηκότων ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου

  [5] Then Jeremiah spoke to Ananias in the sight of all the people, and in the sight of the priests that stood in the house of the Lord,

  [6] καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας Ἀληθῶς· οὕτω ποιήσαι κύριος· στήσαι τὸν λόγον σου, ὃν σὺ προφητεύεις, τοῦ ἐπιστρέψαι τὰ σκεύη οἴκου κυρίου καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἀποικίαν ἐκ Βαβυλῶνος εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον.

  [6] and Jeremiah said, May the Lord indeed do thus; may he confirm thy word which thou dost prophesy, to return the vessels of the house of the Lord, and all the captivity, out of Babylon to this place.

  [7] πλὴν ἀκούσατε τὸν λόγον κυρίου, ὃν ἐγὼ λέγω εἰς τὰ ὦτα ὑμῶν καὶ εἰς τὰ ὦτα παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ

  [7] Nevertheless hear ye the word of the Lord which I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people.

  [8] Οἱ προφῆται οἱ γεγονότες πρότεροί μου καὶ πρότεροι ὑμῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἐπροφήτευσαν ἐπὶ γῆς πολλῆς καὶ ἐπὶ βασιλείας μεγάλας εἰς πόλεμον·

  [8] The prophets that were before me and before you of old, also prophesied over much country, and against great kingdoms, concerning war.

  [9] ὁ προφήτης ὁ προφητεύσας εἰς εἰρήνην, ἐλθόντος τοῦ λόγου γνώσονται τὸν προφήτην, ὃν ἀπέστειλεν αὐτοῖς κύριος ἐν πίστει.

  [9] As for the prophet that has prophesied for peace, when the word has come to pass, they shall know the prophet whom the Lord has sent them in truth.

  [10] καὶ ἔλαβεν Ανανιας ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ τοὺς κλοιοὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ τραχήλου Ιερεμιου καὶ συνέτριψεν αὐτούς.

  [10] Then Ananias took the yokes from the neck of Jeremiah in the sight of all the people, and broke them to pieces.

  [11] καὶ εἶπεν Ανανιας κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ λέγων Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Οὕτως συντρίψω τὸν ζυγὸν βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος ἀπὸ τραχήλων πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν. καὶ ᾤχετο Ιερεμιας εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ. –

  [11] And Ananias spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus said the Lord; Thus will I break the yoke of the king of Babylon from the necks of all the nations. And Jeremiah went his way.

  [12] καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρὸς Ιερεμιαν μετὰ τὸ συντρῖψαι Ανανιαν τοὺς κλοιοὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ τραχήλου αὐτοῦ λέγων

  [12] And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, after that Ananias had broken the yokes off his neck, saying,

  [13] Βάδιζε καὶ εἰπὸν πρὸς Ανανιαν λέγων Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Κλοιοὺς ξυλίνους συνέτριψας, καὶ ποιήσω ἀντ αὐτῶν κλοιοὺς σιδηροῦς·

  [13] Go and speak to Ananias, saying, Thus saith the Lord; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but I will make instead of them yokes of iron.

  [14] ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Ζυγὸν σιδηροῦν ἔθηκα ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν ἐργάζεσθαι τῷ βασιλεῖ Βαβυλῶνος.

  [14] For thus said the Lord, I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all the nations, that they may serve the king of Babylon.

  [15] καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας τῷ Ανανια Οὐκ ἀπέσταλκέν σε κύριος, καὶ πεποιθέναι ἐποίησας τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ἐπ’ ἀδίκῳ·

  [15] And Jeremiah said to Ananias, The Lord has not sent thee; and thou hast caused this people to trust in unrighteousness.

  [16] διὰ τοῦτο οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐξαποστέλλω σε ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς, τούτῳ τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ ἀποθανῇ.

  [16] Therefore thus said the Lord: Behold, I will cast thee off from the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die.

  [17] καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ ἑβδόμῳ.

  [17] So he died in the seventh month.

  CHAPTER 36

  [1] Καὶ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι τῆς βίβλου, οὓς ἀπέστειλεν Ιερεμιας ἐξ Ιερουσαλημ πρὸς τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους τῆς ἀποικίας καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ἱερεῖς καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ψευδοπροφήτας ἐπιστολὴν εἰς Βαβυλῶνα τῇ ἀποικίᾳ καὶ πρὸς ἅπαντα τὸν λαὸν

  [1] And these are the words of the book which Jeremiah sent from Jerusalem to the elders of the captivity, and to the priests, and to the false prophets, even an epistle to Babylon for the captivity, and to all the people;

  [2] ὕστερον ἐξελθόντος Ιεχονιου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τῆς βασιλίσσης καὶ τῶν εὐνούχων καὶ παντὸς ἐλευθέρου καὶ δεσμώτου καὶ τεχνίτου ἐξ Ιερουσαλημ

  [2] (after the departure of Jechonias the king and the queen, and the eunuchs, and every freeman, and bondman, and artificer, out of Jerusalem;)

  [3] ἐν χειρὶ Ελεασα υἱοῦ Σαφαν καὶ Γαμαριου υἱοῦ Χελκιου, ὃν ἀπέστειλεν Σεδεκιας βασιλεὺς Ιουδα πρὸς βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Βαβυλῶνα, λέγων

  [3] by the hand of Eleasan son of Saphan, and Gamarias son of Chelcias, (whom Sedekias king of Juda sent to the king of Babylon to Babylon) saying,

  [4] Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ἐπὶ τὴν ἀποικίαν, ἣν ἀπῴκισα ἀπὸ Ιερουσαλημ

  [4] Thus said the Lord God of Israel concerning the captivity which I caused to be carried away from Jerusalem;

  [5] Οἰκοδομήσατε οἴκους καὶ κατοικήσατε καὶ φυτεύσατε παραδείσους καὶ φάγετε τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῶν

  [5] Build ye houses, and inhabit them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruits thereof;

  [6] καὶ λάβετε γυναῖκας καὶ τεκνοποιήσατε υἱοὺς καὶ θυγατέρας καὶ λάβετε τοῖς υἱοῖς ὑμῶν γυναῖκας καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ὑμῶν ἀνδράσιν δότε καὶ πληθύνεσθε καὶ μὴ σμικρυνθῆτε

  [6] and
take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, and be multiplied, and be not diminished.

  [7] καὶ ζητήσατε εἰς εἰρήνην τῆς γῆς, εἰς ἣν ἀπῴκισα ὑμᾶς ἐκεῖ, καὶ προσεύξασθε περὶ αὐτῶν πρὸς κύριον, ὅτι ἐν εἰρήνῃ αὐτῆς ἔσται εἰρήνη ὑμῖν.

  [7] And seek the peace of the land into which I have carried you captive, and ye shall pray to the Lord for the people: for in its peace ye shall have peace.

  [8] ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Μὴ ἀναπειθέτωσαν ὑμᾶς οἱ ψευδοπροφῆται οἱ ἐν ὑμῖν, καὶ μὴ ἀναπειθέτωσαν ὑμᾶς οἱ μάντεις ὑμῶν, καὶ μὴ ἀκούετε εἰς τὰ ἐνύπνια ὑμῶν, ἃ ὑμεῖς ἐνυπνιάζεσθε,

  [8] For thus saith the Lord; Let not the false prophets that are among you persuade you, and let not your diviners persuade you, and hearken not to your dreams which ye dream.

  [9] ὅτι ἄδικα αὐτοὶ προφητεύουσιν ὑμῖν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου, καὶ οὐκ ἀπέστειλα αὐτούς.

  [9] For they prophesy to you unrighteous words in my name; and I sent them not.

  [10] ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Ὅταν μέλλῃ πληροῦσθαι Βαβυλῶνι ἑβδομήκοντα ἔτη, ἐπισκέψομαι ὑμᾶς καὶ ἐπιστήσω τοὺς λόγους μου ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς τοῦ τὸν λαὸν ὑμῶν ἀποστρέψαι εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον·

  [10] For thus said the Lord; When seventy years shall be on the point of being accomplished at Babylon, I will visit you, and will confirm my words to you, to bring back your people to this place.

  [11] καὶ λογιοῦμαι ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς λογισμὸν εἰρήνης καὶ οὐ κακὰ τοῦ δοῦναι ὑμῖν ταῦτα.
